Good for Futura-ists
The Futura typeface celebrated its 90th birthday this year and Futura: The Typeface, a “stunning examination of one of the most popular typefaces ever created”, has been published in homage. Inspired by simple geometric forms, designer Paul Renner created Futura in 1927 as a clean-lined, modern take on classical typefaces and it was immediately popular. The book traces the face’s story from its Bauhaus origins through to its appearance on the moon, for the text of a plaque to mark the first landing in 1969. Futura: The Typeface is written by Petra Eisele, professor of design history and design theory at the University of Mainz, Annette Ludwig, director of the Gutenberg Museum, and Isabel Naegele, professor of typography at the University of Mainz.
